Marvel & DC Finally Get a Modern Crossover in Visionary Fan Art Team-Ups
As the two biggest names in the comics industry, Marvel Comics and DC Comics have crossed over many times throughout their publication history, but a post by comics artist Vasco Georgiev revealed a series of incredible fan art pieces, teaming together classic and newer heroes and villains in perfectly realized mock covers. Not only is Georgiev's art gorgeous, but he also clearly spent a lot of time thinking about the pairings that he drew together, because the team-ups work incredibly well in terms of personality, abilities, and location.
There have been times when DC and Marvel characters have worked together, like when the X-Men and Teen Titans fought against Darkseid together in The Uncanny X-Men and the New Teen Titans.

However, these crossovers are always years in the making, and often suffer through starts and stops as the two major companies disagree on certain things, so they happen very rarely. Georgiev's art depicts what the comics would like like if their universes simply existed in the same reality, in a modern and gorgeously drawn way that will delight any fan.
